Thanks for your suggestion.

I have tried to search on net to download this utility and found

below link:

 ftp://ftp.ffokus.gmd.de/pub/unix/cdrecord/alpha/win32/

I am not able to get from above link, it says location doesn't

exist.

Could you let me know from where can I get this utility.

One more question, after using copysymlinks, will it retain the

symlinks in Extracted data(folder)?
